I'm a REAL computer dummy, so I could use some really easy, step by step instructions please. My ticker isn't there anymore, just a little red "x" in a little box. Can anyone tell me how to get my ticker up and showing again? Thanks in advance. Brenda :flowerforyou: :smile:

    Hi Brenda, We like to call our "technologically challenged".

    Go under TOOLS, Then click on TICKERS. then GET THE CODE FOR YOUR TICKER. You may have the wrong code, meaning you may have to use the BBcode instead of the HTML code, or vice versa. Copy it. Then go back to HOME, click on SETTINGS, and CHANGE FORUM SIGNATURE. Paste your code there and press SAVE CHANGES.

    Hope that answers your question.

    Only because I'm super anal and know a lot of people who don't get it without very specific step by step instructions. :laugh:

    click the TOOLS tab, then click WEIGHT LOSS TICKERS. Click GET THE CODE FOR YOUR TICKER. There are two boxes with codes in them. Right click inside of the box that says BBCODE on top of it, and choose SELECT ALL. Right click again and click COPY.

    Click the MY HOME tab, and then click the SETTINGS link. Select the CHANGE FORUM SIGNATURE link. Highlight whatever text is in the box and then push your BACKSPACE or DELETE button. Right click inside of the box and select PASTE. Then click the green SAVE CHANGES box underneath. This should resolve the issue....

    sometimes my ticker just stops showing for no reason, but comes back all on it's own. Other people's too. I'm not sure why. try reposting it as you signature and see if anythign happens

    Well gee, thanks anyway for the GREAT "step by step" instructions, but Kerrilucko seems to be right, my ticker is working now!
    I printed up the instructions though in case it ever happens again! Thanks again! :smile: :flowerforyou:
